Aer Lingus has announced that in September 2019 it intends to launch AerSpace, a premium short-haul travel product. AerSpace guests flying to select destinations across the UK and Europe (see below for a full list) will be guaranteed an aisle or window seat on the first row of the aircraft, with the middle seat left vacant for a more spacious travel experience.
Stowage space will also be reserved for AerSpace guests directly above their seats, with further benefits including lounge access, fast track security, a 20kg baggage allowance, priority boarding and on-board refreshments.
AerSpace enhances Aer Lingus’ fare offering, which also includes Saver, the lowest fare option, Plus, and Advantage. AerSpace is available to book now for travel from September 1, 2019 with fares from €129 each-way, including taxes and charges.
Where will AerSpace fly?
Key routes will be Aer Lingus’ most popular short-haul destinations, namely London, Paris, Manchester and Barcelona. Recognising that the Dublin to London corridor is one of the busiest business corridors globally, Aer Lingus bookings for London indicate that 25% of guests travel to the UK capital for business purposes.
